I live locally and decided to pop round with a friend for lunch. Ali and Bob were rushed off their feet. But still very friendly and welcoming. Due to large parties having the wine tour we had a little wait but Ali gave us our soup for free and a wee hand written more to say sorry. I was well worth the wait and just gave us girls more time for a chat. Amazing soup and toasties. Plus gave us time to buy some of the lovely wine. We will be back soon. Thanks for a lovely time.

Oh bless you, yes we were absolutely rammed that day and we were up to our breeks in orders in the kitchen so things were going slightly barmy, but we're just delighted that you enjoyed your extended visit to us and also incredibly happy to report that we've made a few menu and kitchen process changes so things should be a lot quicker from now on x Great to hear that you had a chance to have a good old catch up though, we love that x Hope to see you again soon x

Okay.
This isn't a one off review.
I've been to Alibob's at Cairn O' Mhor winery quite a few times in recent months and I have to say they are absolutely consistent.
The food, service and ambience are cracking and I've been known to cycle back home from there with both goodies from the cafe, and the winery shop (the cider box is fabulous), on my back.
On each of my visits I've been treated to excellent and cheerful service as my food is ordered and served. The food is something else. You really need to try the haggis and oak smoked cheddar on a toasted ciabata roll coupled to their homemade coleslaw. The range and style of soups they do is astonishing and of the four varieties I've tried I've have never been disappointed. Hot, tasty and filling. Perfect for us ravenous cyclists.
When I took my wife their for lunch (she's a really finicky foodie) she was the most complimentary I've ever heard her. She had the hunger buster roast beef sandwich on one visit and the baked potato and tuna on another. Both apparently easy dishes to do but very difficult to do just right. They managed!! She was one happy bunny (made my life easier too!!).
So, is it worth stopping off for? Oh yes, yes, yes, but preferably not when I'm there please.
I want to preserve my own little piece of culinary heaven and keep it to myself!

Had a great lunch at AliBob cafe today. Great vegan options - soup, toasties, sandwiches, baked potatoes and cakes. Had a vegan fajita toastie (peppers, cheese, refried beans) with curried sweet potato soup. Husband had a vegan haggis and cheese toastie and we both finished with a lovely orange drizzle cake (gluten free too). It's a cosy place and the staff were really friendly and up to speed on the vegan options. Definitely recommend it.

Hi there, thanks for your kind words. Delighted that we were able to provide you with a fuss-free visit - we don't know why places find it so hard to cater for different dietary requirements, we love to come up with new options and combinations for everyone no matter what you choose to include or exclude from your meals! Hope to see you again soon x

Second visit to AliBob this year and thinking we should really visit more often! Just like last time, very friendly service, relaxed and laid back atmosphere but still efficient. Food absolutely delicious. We’d recommend the soup meze especially for people like me who can’t make their mind up and just want everything. Delicious freshly made wrap to follow, so good that I had to eat half of it before taking the attached photo. Opted for cheesecake this time after a very filling lunch and could easily have been happy with any of the cakes. I’d suggest a cake meze would be a great addition to the menu! We brought a couple of our friends with us today and they loved it too.

I am a big fan of Alibobs and have visited on several occasions, I was passing with family after being on an adventure day and thought it the perfect place to stop for a spot of late lunch. As usual was not disappointed and neither were any of my party we all left feeling suitably stuffed and contented after our soups, sandwiches and cakes.
